Anyway, i dont see anything racial in the pic at all. I think people are reading too far into it. Magazine sales across the board are down adn black people damn sure arent buying vogue of all magazines. I think Vogue may have leaked that it had something racial in it just for people to take notice to their magazine. Now that doesnt make it right but I still dont see anything racial in that pic.

If the tattoos have a link in prisons and gangs--and they certainly do--then you can't just evaluate that look in a vacuum. It's to fit an aesthetic, and that aesthetic certainly isn't one designed to make one look smooth and professional. Nah, that’s not true.

That's as funny as it's absurd. Jason Whitlock is a lawn jockey who's outta control. What exactly has Lebron “conciously” done to appear dangerous? That’s as funny as it’s absurd.

But, if we want to find things to get indignant about, has anyone seen a DC Lottery commercial in the last 2-3 years? I don’t know if the Vogue cover is racist or not.

I'll have to take your word for it, Bo, because I have zero interest in reading anything from Mr. Rib Shack.

If a white athlete had done a 'controversial' magazine cover we would not be having a discussion about how his cover affected the perception of all white men! Personally, I don't think the cover is controversial at all. If Lebron wants to appear on the cover of the top fashion magazine in the world in shorts and a tank top, let him! If I had the opportunity, I would have worn the ultimate bespoke suit tailored to within an inch of my life! However, we are all different. Wake up Amerikkka!
